But that is why your neighborhood Times team is here, we belong to brighten your day and show you all the wonderful things we can do as a community.

This weeks edition is packed with tons of info that you don't want to miss. So once again i must ask that you grab some tea and a good snack as we push right on into this weeks edition of the MCME Times. ~ Project Progress ~ Anorien - Lead...

Shamrock Sunday! Make a Wish! Editor's Note by Soarz Dang, has i really been three months already, time flies when your on the best Minecraft server in existence. Every week is a new adventure, or a challenge to take on and we push for the best. In MCME there is always something to do, it doesn't matter if that is building great big things or helping new players around the map, there is always something that you can do. In this weeks edition i urge you to look at all the amazing things people have done and put there love into and try and find something that you would enjoy doing, because if you aren't having fun then it feels more like a job then a passionate hobby. Not to put anymore time away, lets move into March's first...

Love is in the air! MCME is the only true love! Editor's Note by Soarz It may be passed valentines day but that doesn't mean we can just love something for one day. MCME has a special place in all of our hearts especially those who have been here for a while. We can see all those who have brought us this far, and the things that we have achieved and know that this was not just a solo effort, but of a community and one that has one drive and passion, and that is the singular love for Middle Earth. This edition will be a bit smaller as we transition our projects and move forward with the new 1.14 patch. So not to keep you waiting any longer, lets dive right on into this weeks edition of the MCME TIMES!!! ~ Project Progress ~...

Time Flies! One month down, a few to go! Editor's Note by Soarz Welcome back Dwarves, Elves, and Humans alike. We hope you enjoy your stay this week as week we talk about the tales of MCME, from projects to the news that has spread across the land. With January out of the way we only have a few months to work with so lets make then count! We have a lot to talk about and even more to show you, so without a further due please sit back at a 70 degree angle and get a good glass of water as we dive straight into this weeks edition of the MCME TIMES! ~ Project Progress ~ Anorien - Lead: @Oberanio | In Progress Report by Monster_Duck Anorien awaits new textures before it can continue building. Andrast - Lead: @jacenpeter |...

Moving Forward! January is almost over! Editor's Note by Soarz January has rushed by, but time does fly when your chilling waiting on the good ole patch. This week is going to be a bit smaller on the project side as not much did happen as we watched from the sidelines as Eriol, and the team dealt with all the conversions and derps. We have added a bit more news for you to enjoy and look over to compensate for the lack of projects. Now relax as the edition is about to start, grab a seat/chair, and a snack as we show you the wonders of the MCME Times. ~ Project Progress ~ Anorien - Lead: @Oberanio | In Progress Report by Monster_Duck Anorien is waiting for new textures before it can resume building. Till then, its artists are...

New Year New mcME! Happy 2020 Everyone! Editor's Note by Soarz Happy new year MCME, last year was a bit wild, but fun. Time just seems to fly so fast when your having fun with friends and building amazing projects. With this new year we have the 1.14 update that is very close to being done, meaning more projects to report on. No more "Not much here this week" from us, as tons of work will be started shortly. I hope everyone is ready for another year with the community, because there is more fun to be had. So if your popcorn is ready with all the butter you can muster, lets get into this weeks edition. ~ Project Progress ~ Andrast - Lead: @jacenpeter | In Progress Report by Monster_Duck Andrast lies in wait for the server...

Happy New year! Just kidding, only two more days to go! Editor's Note by Soarz This year is coming to a close and with that many achievements along the way. Alot of progress was made this year, not just within our server but in our community as well. We see as Lag - i mean Dol Amroth is finally finished putting us closer to our true goal of making all of Middle Earth in minecraft. We also see as roles are changed around as Valar pass off there tasks to new upcoming talent to make way for a new generation of MCME Valar. As well as more people join the team, of course we have also lost some along the way, but they will always be with us. With that this year has come to a wrap, as well as our memories we will carry with us...

Chilly Season has set in! The season of lights, fires, and Middle-earth builds! Editor's Note by Soarz We are officially halfway through December, and boy has it flown by! It felt like two weeks ago we just did this, oh wait we did. That's OK though because we have all new information for you and more progress on our usual builds. Not even the cold can slow us down from having fun on MCME as we have our winter events coming up, and this time around we will not be visiting Bree but SNOWY BREE!! Bet you didn't see that coming. Anyways, don't let me keep you! Please enjoy this weeks edition and watch out for the mistletoe out there. ~ Project Progress ~ Anorien - Lead: @Oberanio | In Progress Report by Soarz The cold weather...

Merry MiddleEarth! It's that time of season again! Editor's Note by Soars Another two weeks and another edition to showcase your favorite content! It's the first of December and the weather is getting chilly, meaning blankets and tea. Work around the server is going smoothly and efficiently, there is always room for more builds. Not to mention the upgrade to 1.13, which means we are going to have a lot to look forward to in the coming days! This week we have our usual's and some good information in our development section, so be sure to check that out. Anyways, grab a buddy and a hot drink and enjoy what we have for you this week! ~ Project Progress ~ Anorien - Lead: @Oberanio | In Progress Report by Soars As the season...

It's finally cold season! Anywhere is cold if you just believe it is! Editor's Note by Soarz It's your favorite news letter of the week back again with some spicy new content. We had a slower couple of weeks this time around but none the less its still all good stuff. New projects are starting and 1.13 is in full view but sadly isn't touchable yet. That's ok though because there is still more to do around here. With it being more cold as of late that means finals and end of classes for some of us, giving us both stress and at the end free time. Anyways lets get on with this weeks edition, i hope you have a good read and don't forget to smash that like button. ~ Project Progress ~ Anorien - Lead: @Oberanio | In Progress...

Spooky Seasons Over! Now the cold can set in! Editor's Note by Soarz It has been a wild month to say the least! Starting with the Anniversary and progressing through events everyone had a good time. All of them were put together by our guide team with help from selective builders and of course our Valar. This week your favorite times team brings you another wonderful edition showing off all our building efforts from what we saw last week. We also see the introduction of our new Bungee Network, this was put in place just in case of another big out break of popularity in our beloved server. So without a further or do please sit back, grab your hot chocolate, slap in your favorite Lord of the Rings movie and have a good time reading...

Happy Birthday MCME! Its been a long journey! Editor's Note by Soarz Welcome back fellow readers, we have a special edition this week! We celebrate nine years since the start of MCME! Its' been a long path and we have lost many great people, but in return we've gained many talented people. We couldn't have made it this far without their determination to building what they loved and now that we have the torch they passed down, it's our task to continue what they started. With that in mind we started our events for the Anniversary, and like every year they are going great! Sit back and enjoy another great edition, and don't forget to check out the new theme build! ;) ~ Project Progress ~ Anorien - Lead: @Oberanio | In Progress...

Nine Years and Counting! Its been a journey but its not over just yet! Editor's Note by Soarz It's all coming full circle once again and we are ready for it. Nine years doing anything can be hard and we have gained and lost many people over the years. But we take what they left us and move forward starting were they left off. With Eriol handing Head guide to Raffy and Credoo giving the crown to Smaug we have more traction the ever before. We were moving at a good pace but i see that we will be going even faster with the new lines of leadership we now have. Anyways this edition is full of twists and turns that I'm sure you aren't ready for. Sit back and enjoy another exciting new edition of your favorite news letter!! ~ Project...

Chilly Seasons Approach! We near the end of September and October weather follows! Editor's Note by Soarz Another two weeks have come and gone, and to say its been hectic would be an understatement. This past week we finally held the Helms Deep Battle for Node, it had an amazing turnout with many new players coming to check it out. A big majority of the credit goes to our beloved @Eriol_Eandur who put in many months of hard work to make this amazing battle possible. And how could we forget about @TotiGonzales who also spend a substantial about of time making the skins we got to wear and see. That is just a brief glimpse of what has been going on, much more has happened and i guess you'll have to read to find out what. So enjoy...

Fall is Coming! The cold will not stop our progress! Proofreader's Note by _Lord_Of_Squids_ Welcome back to the times, everyone! This marks another 2 weeks of progress and fun, and the beginning of another! I've started to feel a change in the air as the year wears on, which is great news for us winter lovers. But, as summer ends, more and more of us are falling to the great beast known as education, and while this may hinder build progress for a little bit our spirits are never daunted! Besides, what better thing to do after a long day at school or university than relax and explore (or build) Middle-earth? So sit back, put your reading glasses on, lower your chair, raise it because you lowered it a little bit too much, get up...

We can rest MCME! The hype has finally started to go down! Editor's Note by Soarz Another great two weeks have just flown by and lots of progress has been made. Things have begun to slow down but work is still being done all around the map. Many are off to school and that means less time for what we love, but regardless MCME players will always find a way to get on and have the time of their lives. Be sure keep a look out for jobs and different activities that happen on the server, and don't forget to have a wonderful day! ~ Project Progress ~ Anorien – Lead: @Oberanio | In Progress Report by _Lord_Of_Squids_ Terrain is being finished all over Anorien. As of now, there are no sandy spots left! Streams are being checked and...

MCME Community! Everyone is helping out! Editor's Note by Soarz As we see old faces return from their long rest, there are a lot of people doing what they can to help with the progress. Everyone from Commoners looking for jobs to our great Valar, looking over our projects and helping out themselves, no one is left out! The influx of players is still coming and isn't looking to stop, but that's ok!, there is plenty to do and we have all the time in the world. Through out the next weeks be on the lookout for jobs to join and many fun games to partake in, within this community there is never a dull moment! ~ Project Progress ~ Anorien – Lead: @Oberanio | In Progress Report by _Lord_Of_Squids_ Great progress here! The terrain outside...

Media MiddleEarth We've gone viral Editor's Note by Soarz The last two weeks have been pretty crazy, to say the least. After Node came on we have had a consistent one hundred people on at a time. We have been on not just YouTube, but Reddit, Instagram, and Facebook! We haven't seen these kind of stats in years and progress has boomed! More is being worked on and many adventurers are joining in. To all new players, welcome to MCME! We are glad you could join us in our great feat, and I hope you find a place in the community. Whether its building or sharing your knowledge with the world, I hope you have the time of your life. ~ Project Progress ~ Anorien – Lead: @Oberanio | In Progress Report by _Lord_Of_Squids_ Good progress...

Event Season Preparations are made and work is being done Editor's Note by Soarz First off lets give a shout out to _Lord_of_Squids_ for his amazing tour for Node! He did a stellar job and helped boost the server with an influx of people. Despite the server being overran things were controlled and there are only positive things said about all the work done. Speaking of Events, we have our very own summer events just around the corner! Work on the server is going great with jobs going on left and right. Join a job and make MCME great again! ~ Project Progress ~ Anorien – Lead: @Oberanio | In Progress Report by _Lord_Of_Squids_ Oberanio was too busy raiding Europe to give me any progress updates, but it looks like some farms...

Mid Summer Middle Earth! There's nothing like Summer Minecraft! Editor's Note by Soarz Were half way through the summer and its still as hot as always, so I hope all the workers are getting enough water. Projects are advancing and work is being done all over. Moria has made immense progress with halls going up and jobs being ran - but don't worry! Revamps are happening too. The new JobBot has helped in making it easier for Foreman to make jobs more available and open. Be sure to be on the look out for them, they are fun and open to all! ~ Project Progress ~ Anorien – Lead: @Oberanio | In Progress Report by _Lord_Of_Squids_ Great progress in Anorien! The terrain around Osgiliath just needs a bit more smoothing and it will be...
